OK, I saw the recent announcement regarding the berkeley DB changes.  The
notuce said a simple upgrade should address the issue.  I did a complete
upgrade for the latestset of released packages and now have the following
installed:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
berkeleydb                   4.7.25,REV=2009.07.01                          SAME
berkeleydb3                  3.3.11,REV=2009.07.22                          SAME
berkeleydb4           4.2.52,REV=2008.02.23_rev=p5         4.1.25,REV=2009.06.26
berkeleydb44                 4.4.20,REV=2009.06.26                          SAME
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why the berkeleydb4 is now showing a later rev than the catalog is a mystery.
But now my berkeley 4x libraries are hosed as witness an attempt to run
perl:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1-> perl
ld.so.1: perl: fatal: libdb-4.4.so: open failed: No such file or directory
Killed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here are the /opt/csw/lib/libdb* libraries now installed on my system:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
libdb-3.3.so
libdb-4.7.so*
libdb-4.so@
libdb.so@
libdb_cxx-4.7.so*
libdb_cxx-4.so@
libdb_cxx.so@
libdb_java-4.7.so*
libdb_java-4.7_g.so@
libdb_java-4.so@
libdb_java.so@
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So perl, and possibly other programs are looking for libdb-4.4.so which no
longer exists.

Suggestions to get the system back to a sane state are welcome.
